Answer:

960 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright so first off we set up a proportion problem since this is a direct variasion problem. (You cannot set up a problem if it is inverse) So

2 combines=320 acres

6 combines=x acres

*cross multiply*

2x=1920

1920 divided by 2 is 960

Therefore,

x=960 acres. (make sure to include the unit)

Cheers!!
